Top 10 1.The capital punishment for treason and murder is death. Sebastian attempted to kill the king and take the throne for himself. He also shows obvious disloyalty when he decides to leave the king on the ship.
2. Naples is one of the oldest cities in italy. Founded by the Greeks in 700bc.
3. The eldest son of the king is heir to the throne. If there is no son any daughter is the heir before the oldest brother. So the brother would have a very slim chance of getting to be heir to the kingdom.
4. The king's brother is born with special privileges and titles. But the king's children and grandchildren have more authority than he does. Sebastian is very lazy because he has alot of the benefits of his relation but will probobly never see the throne for himself.
5. Punishments for treason is to be drawn (disemboweled), hanged, and/or quartered (horse pulled dismemberment), then gibbeted (dead body put on public display).
6. Ships in 1700's were called Caravels. Relatively new style with multiple triangular and square sails.
7. The king's brother has no real responsibilities but has all the benefits of living in the royal family.
8. Royalty had to marry into other royalty only so as to keep the lineage.
9. Antonio persuades Sebastian into killing his brother Alonzo in order to seize the throne.
10. Sebastian (and Antonio) don't have any remorse in their actions and don't wish to be forgiven because they see no wrong in their ways.
This is an artist's depiction of what Alonzo would have looked like if Sebastian would have succeeded in killing him.
The song I chose was Lion King's "I just can't wait to be king". The reason why I chose this song is because Sebastian is convinced by Antonio that he deserves the crown and if he just sits around waiting to inherit the crown it will never happen. So he tries to take the throne himself by attempting to murder his own brother.
